Abstract

Pushover analysis of an existing structure located at Bangalore is carried out to evaluate its available strength. Analysis was carried out in different stages such as modelling for a bare frame structure and infilled with brick masonry and ferrocement with the consideration of openings such as doors and windows. The analysis outcome revealed that the few of the structural members was insufficient to carry external forces for various seismic zone intensities and demanded the retrofitting and thus revision of the structural dimensions were suggested and further analytical studies showed that base shear carrying capacity and displacement parameters significantly affects for different types of infilled materials and bare frames.
